He finds that the manager of Citi\u2019s MINI trading desk has recently resigned and asmall group of Sydney<br \/> University\u2019s students are now running the trading desk. Shocked by this fact, the CEO immediately asks this group of students to send him a report, based on ALL MINI<br \/> products with Australian stocks as underlying assets. The purpose of this report is to convince the CEO that a group of students can run Citi\u2019s MINI desk. Students do<br \/> not need report MINI products on other underlying assets. The website for these products is: https:\/\/au.citifirst.com\/EN\/search\/MINIs<\/p>\n<p>1. What are MINIs? How are MINI products priced? What are the maturity dates of MINI products?<\/p>\n<p>2. For each underlying stock, does Citi provide both long and short MINIs? If for some underlying asset the answer is no, explain why Citi cannot provide both long and<br \/> short MINI products.<\/p>\n<p>3. How to determine strike prices or strike price range for MINIs?<\/p>\n<p>4. Does put-call parity hold or approximately hold for Citi\u2019s MINI products?<\/p>\n<p>5. For each underlying stock, check whether ASX provide call\/put option products. Asx.com.au or any trading platform (Nabtrade, Commsec, etc.) will be a good source to<br \/> check it.<\/p>\n<p>6. Compare Citi\u2019s MINI products to ASX\u2019s option products. What are the typical daily trading volume range? What are the typical bid\/ask units? Can you see obvious<br \/> differences between Citi\u2019s MINI and ASX\u2019s option with respect to their bid\/ask market depth and trading volume?<\/p>\n<p>7. What are the deltas of MINI products?<\/p>\n<p>8. Can traders short all the underlying stocks for MINI products? Asx.com.au or shortman.com.au will be a good source to check it.<\/p>\n<p>9. Citi makes market for all of its MINI products. How to hedge Citi\u2019s risk? Is this risk high if Citi conducts 50% delta hedge? 50% delta hedge means Citi only<br \/> buy\/sell 50% units of underlying asset required for delta hedge. Results will be acceptable if assumptions and data\/estimates\/calculation are reasonable.<\/p>\n<p>10. Is it possible that call\/put stock option trading activity impacts the trading activity and stock price of the underlying? If yes, can you provide one example? If<br \/> no, explain why.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Citi\u2019s CEO visits Citi Australia\u2019s head office in March, 2017 Citi\u2019s CEO visits Citi Australia\u2019s head office in March, 2017.
